To address your "upset and bitter" comment: The only thing I'm disappointed in is that fellow members are getting hollered at for just providing a report about what Acuna's doing. Yes, you're correct: it disappoints me when a group of people with whom I like to talk baseball willfully forgo objective sports/collecting talk in favor of just doing the hype thing.

As for your "YOU sound like a miserable old bitty who needs to unpucker your tail pipe" comment.....gracious. I'll just let you look at that and remember you said that instead of something - anything - else.

I’ll look at it and laugh. Gracious, you are wound very tightly.

I’ll take back the upset and bitter comment, BUT, you did not come off as being objective, you came off sounding condescending and judgmental. Read your post again (the one giving inane statements) and really see if you were being ‘objective’.

Time to move on as you suggested at the end of your first paragraph. I will.

ACUNA Matada, friend.
